why hear 2012 now? why no hear 2012 in the 80s? 90s?

i think the 80s does predict apocalypse but not 2012 right? why didnt the 80s or 90s talk about 2012? why talk about 2012 now?

Because back then 2000 was the end of the world and the big thing. People need just one doomsday. Until they get bored with it and/ or it comes to pass with nothing more exciting than a herring farting in Alaska at night when nobody is around.

hfo....thats because there was 3 or 4 ends of the world in both decades....they hadn't even gotten to y2k yet.....much less 2012.......

It was talked about then. I am 47 and can remember talking about it at primary school. That was the 70s

Do you mean 2012 as the date for apocalypse? if so from where did you get that?
If you are talking about 2012 as the date marked by the Mayan calendar? well, all depends from which part of the world you live, people connected to mayan culture has known this for centuries.
You have been hearing about 2012 because we are getting closer to that date.

Mayan calendar has never predicted Apocalypse, 2012 is just the end of a mayor natural cycle and the start for a new one.
Mayans knew that nature is ruled by cycles, December 21 2012 is the day where all those cycles will terminate together....AND start all over again
this happens only once every 25625years( precession of the equinoxes).

Dec 21 2012, represents an extremely close conjunction of the Winter Solstice Sun with the crossing point of the Galactic Equator and the ecliptic.
This astronomic event has brought a lot of speculation.
Mayans prophesied events we see nowadays in connection to this astronomical event.

well umm its like 50% i think its a hoax and 50% i think its true.

i was like 100% thinking its a hoax cause why would rumors and people talk about 2012 now? why didnt they talk about it in the 80s, 90s? its like im thinking its a hoax.... and look at y2k.... people be wasting tons of money on supplies.

.....but then theres so many source which shows so many evidence and signs of 2012 is the year of cycle.... year of end of specie... year of ect... year of new specie arive ect.... they have so many evidence like

- many scientist say so
- mayan calendar
- nasa about planet x coming
- chinese iching or something like that board fortune telling
- crop signs and encoded 2012
- interweb shows number 2012 and shows other future stuff
- merlin say so
- many oracles say so
- global warming and we are seeing it
- multiple severe wheather storm take place in one period
- war going on

also i read somewhere that it says when it is near apocalypse it will have many storm and war going on. if 2012 really are true.... i think it will be a reformat..... you know like computer reformat.... where every current files disapears and new fresh files apears. i dont think the world will ever end.

The Mayan calendar never said Doomsday exactly. It said there would be a new age, which scientist's say will have no impact on humanity. The scientist's describe a new age as being like 1999 becoming 2000. It's like entertaining a new year. The Internet was the one who claimed Doomsday would come in 2012. There are several documentaries that bust the 2012 theory. It's just a matter of finding them. I watched one a few months ago that talked about the scientist's and what they really know about the Mayan calendar. Which got me thinking. What makes the scientist's think they are right when they read the calendar? For all I know, they could've been reading it backwards. In this case, the scientist's think they are right, but are they really? It's a tough call. The scientist's wont tell us where they found the calendar, there are no Mayans around to ask what the calendar really says. So they scientist's go by thought.

You are absolutely right about the world will ever end, it will continue with or with out us.

I remember a Japanese movie I saw back in the 70´s, it talked about, the ozone hole and it showed in an exaggerated way how people was burned by the solar rays, earthquakes, tzunamies, war, famine, droughts and the sinking of the Japan in the Pacific Ocean, the movie was based on the predictions of Edgar Cayce.

In the 80´s I took part of a group of people, who had an open contact with aliens back in the 70´s, this topic was part of our conversations.

Also, I agree with you that most of the information you find in Internet is hoax, fantasies and a lot of paranoia.

2012 marks a mayor astronomical event, like I mentioned in my previous post, say it in simple words, the beginning of a new galactic year. similar to the winter ending at the spring equinox.

People fear changes, the unknown, that´s way there are a lot of predictions based on fear, the end of our galactic year imply changes. changes in time perception, changes in our conscience, changes in our vibration rate, etc.
How difficult or easy the change will come? this is in our hands. we are in risk to make it difficult but we also have the power to make it easy.

If 2012 is the year that it all ends, what could you do about it?
If is not the year that it all ends, what could you do about it?

Well it seems none of you are doing research, so I am done posting in this topic.

yeti......I don't really have to research anything.....I remember the "predictions" of the ends of the world in the 1980s and 1990s.....and I'm still here.....

Hi Yeti
Mayan calendar is not the only calendar known in mesoamerica, they all are basically the same, glyphs are different from one culture to another. Olmec culture is the ancients culture known in mesoamerica, but in fact, the name Olmec enclosed several earlier civilizations that have not been identified yet.
The origin of the calendar is lost in time, Mayans probably took it from earlier civilizations (Olmecs).
So, how do we know about the Mayan calendar today? By the Maya mythological tradition (oral tradition from the Mayan descendants) , as documented in Colonial Yucatec accounts (Spaniard documents) and reconstructed from Late Classic and Postclassic inscriptions(original stone records),
Tragically almost all original Mayan written records in paper (codes) where destroyed by the ignorance and fanaticism of the Spaniards

Mayan calendar is in fact, composed of many other calendars, synchronized and interlocked in many ways, their combinations giving rise to further, more extensive cycles .

Dont forget about the comet strike of 2028 and if it misses it has a better chance of hitting us in 2032. They predict that at it's current course it will pass between the moon and earth and will be visible. it will appear to be maybe 1/10 the size of the moon but if something hits it just slightly it could end up crashing into earth. But then in 2032, they believe it has like a 80% chance. I have to look up the source if I can find it. But if it splits in 2 it could hit us twice.

Great logical answer! I don't believe the doomsayers. I believe in the cycle change and even then it's very doubtful that things will change. But hopefully a peaceful revolution or something. That would be nice.

hope this doesn't post twice, lol, here josh, this might help answer your question.

I had no access to a computer, and there was not yet a lot of fancy calculation in print, either on precession or Mesoamerican calendrics. Anthony Aveni's Skywatchers of Ancient Mexico was not published until six years later. In the next decade, the 1980s, archeo-astronomy took off famously, with many books appearing at once. It was a heady time to be on the trail of ancient skylore.

It is worth noting that Waters' book appeared in 1974, the inceptive moment of the 1974-2012 interval centered on the nodal year, 1993. I have suggested that this 38-year interval marks the unique generation that will navigate humanity toward the Maya end-time. 1974 signals the initial conditions for the global perspective to emerge in the minds of that generation. Those who initialized the vision of planetary transformation (or whatever) in the 1970s will transmit it to the younger members of the generation, those who live at the post-millennial end of the interval. I believe that generational continuity is essential to the viability and coherence of end-time visions.

The wave of interest in archeoastronomy, and its legitimization as a scientific genre, falls neatly into the 1974-2012 interval. John Michell's cult classic, The View over Atlantis, went up like a signal flare in 1969, calling attention to sacred landscape and ley-lines. Peter Lancaster Brown's Megaliths, Myths and Men, still the best overview of the subject, came out in 1976. Sky/ground mirroring and the stellar orientation of megalithic sites (e.g. Graham Hancock, Heaven's Mirror) are recurrent topics of the end-time.



From megalithic astronomy we take instruction on the long view of civilization and the millennial parameters of cultural evolution.>>

hope that helps. The information was there, it just wasn't banted about in forums, it was studied by only those who were interested. B.

They were talking for 2000, 1999 and yet here we stand and writing so ... but as for 2012 i thinkk that the maya calendar was to then so there are peope that asume that at that year will come the end of the world. I believe that there is danger infact there are many dangers one for example is global worming


excuse my bad english
